The last album you purchased/downloaded, what was it?

[Conquiztador]

This is NOT bout what music you like or youtube vids you want others to see.

This is re what was the last album you bought or downloaded.

What was it, why did you get it, and is it any good?



Mine was Mudvayne's Black Light. Can't get this one in NZ so had to import from US.

What a fucking ball braking album!!!

Reason I got it: Have all their other albums and really love their shit. So once this one was out there I just had to have it!

Just now sitting and listening to it full noise on stereo and having a JD (or two...) and find that each time I listen to it I change my mind re what song I like most.

Baroness - Blue Record.

Awesome. Progressive Metal which is a step in a heavier direction from their last album. And yes, I purchased it.

IMHO Mudvayne were never gonna beat L.D. 50. Mainstream called, and they answered with "Happy?"

[Virago]

Last complete album was The Boxer Rebellion - Union.

They first came to my attention as the core band for the "Long Way Down" soundtrack. Some good stuff on the Union Album.

Wavering Radiant from Isis

Some seriously insane, melodic heavy tunes. Tool, with less skill and more grind, in short.
Grabbed it on recommendation from a mate. Worth a listen IMO.

[Quasi]

Last album purchase was annie lennox - songs of mass destruction.

last song download - guru josh project- infinity 2008 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9KnuJZkBjg

BLAM!

Didn't realise they had a new album out. That'll be my next. Oceanic and Panoptican were incredible albums. You should try Baronness too. Start on the "Red Album"

[Big Dave]

Mark Knopfler - Get Lucky.

The complete ANTI-headbanger album.
Beautiful music with an often Celtic or Northern flavour and melancholic themes. Occasional rocky offering too.
It even has one song that will become a Funeral favourite for anyone of Scots heritage, either the first or the last album of the night - but on the whole it's exactly the sort of relaxing music I enjoy for work and to write to.

The car was the one.

This is re what was the last album you bought or downloaded.

What was it, why did you get it, and is it any good?

Bought: Bullet for my Valentine - Fever.
'Cos my son wanted it.
Dunno, don't think I've even heard it. But then it was in the "meh! tal" section so my expectations are not high. (But according to young master it was misfiled).

Last album I bought for myself? Honestly can't remember. Might have been a bargain bin Magazine album from The WareWhare. Maybe Correct Use of Soap? If that was it, then yes, it is very good indeed, if one is in the mood for it. (Or have I had that for years? Dunno. Still can't make up my mind if Magazine or The Cure were the best band ever).

Last album I downloaded? Actually a song, not an album: The Only Ones - Another Girl, Another Planet. Just because.

Some time ago the music agenda in the house was affected by what I like. Then my son got a guitar, so now we tend to hear a lot of the same song over and over again. Current playlist is Bless the Fall (or BlessTheFall, or something) - Pray. Yes, just the one.

('snot bad though, if I'm honest.... might find a home on an appropriately lined up playlist in the future).

[Lunchbox]

Lamb of God - Ashes of the Wake

Just been collecting their albums as i Saw them back in Dec when my mate got me a ticket to the gig and just been in love with them since.. esp the song 'The Faded Line'.
If i was a chick i would get moist to that song

[wysper]

Heaven and Hell - The Devil You Know

Cos Dio is a legend and I liked the almost DOOM grind feel of the album. Candlemass is next on my list.

[Headbanger]

Mark Knopfler - Get Lucky.

The complete ANTI-headbanger album.


Thats a bit personal, I've never even met him. Fuckers gonna get a beating when I do.

[Headbanger]

Ozzy-Scream.

Bought it at the BP in Otaki and needed something to distract me from mulling over the job interview I had just been to in Wellington.

God damn wish I hadn't, I knew it wouldn't be very good but did not expect it to so be shit. Seriously shit. A full face drenching in shit shit, thats how shit it is.

Production-Shit. My speakers nearly died on the first song, sounded like the tracks being torn off a tank as it went over a stack of steel beams. Had to pull over and mess with the settings to get it to a point where I could listen to it. Then a robot voice track kicked in.Fuck me dead.

Lyrics-Just shit. He's got nothing to say so he's just mouthing crap. Scream and Soul Sucka are two of the worst offenders but the rest never rise above shit. People who take no notice of lyrical content may enjoy, But this is a low point for Ozzy, fucker has sung some of the best lyrics ever penned, How the fuck he accepts this crap is beyond me (Oh wait, He's fucked and its all about money)

Vocals-Ozzy doesn't so much sing as just mouth the words and then they have heavily digitized every single word, to the point that his delivery is a monotone that has been enhanced to give melody and variance by computer. Fuck everyone who worked on this album, You suck sticks of shit.

Music-100 percent forgettable. They band do get a chance to pound away in the middle of the disc, but not for long, and its distorted by the production.

Don't buy the album if you value your memory of Ozzys legacy.

Slash...really enjoying it

[Dave Lobster]

Teenage Fanclub. Shadows.

It needs about ten listens to 'get' it. Three more than normal...

[Fatt Max]

Wake Up The Nation, Paul Weller.

Real departure from other stuff as a lot of the tracks are co-written. Moves on from the classic '22 Dreams' and really makes an impact. Going to see him live in October, should be good

[Madmax]

Afghan Whigs, Up In It

Was tossing up between the two tonight - sounds like I made the right choice

[Headbanger]

Hard to say, I'm known to be overly harsh in my opinions and the album does have some good reviews.

To me its on the level of nickleback.

[pete376403]

Steve Winwood - Revolutions. Old stuff

[DEATH_INC.]

Citadellion - Adventurers of Taeloth

Kinda cool in a sorta 80's metal way.

Good - I though he'd lost the plot. Will check it out.

[boman]

Slash-- Actually a good album. Different singers, different music, but somehow very good. One of the few albums I have purchased, where I havn't yet skipped a track.

Hah, I have that album too....My favorite track on it is 1000 mile journey...
I always go to Billboard.com and check out music on there.....Even before Shinedown was known here I was listening to their shit....and have just recently found something else i like...Avenged sevenfold-Nightmare...

To bad you only just found out about them considering they came to NZ a little while ago
Do you have Shinedowns acoustic version of Simpleman bloody good that

As for my last purchase was mid last year Machine Head - Through the ashes of empires

Last download was new albums by Slash, Alice in Chains and Deftones

[Bren]

considerin the fact that I am a HUGE Lynyrd Skynyrd fan (redneck all the way there) most covers of LS seem to rub me the wrong way, but Shinedown did an excelent rendition of it...really like that song...

Machine Head


Interesting. 'Machine Head' is one of the foundation albums of all mainstream heavy metal.
Arguably the first to enjoy commercial success. Depending on your Iron Buterfly, Uriah Heap and Black Sabbath opinion.

Machine Head as in the band not the deep purple album, got that one to definitely a must have

[Gubb]

Well, after discovering the new Dillinger Ecape Plan's album, I bought this today.

You, on the otherhand, won't like it. You have been warned.

Yea - I meant interesting that a band would use the name. I checked em out - cool

Just seems akin to a pop band calling themselves 'Sgt Peppers'.

[MisterD]

Madness "Liberty of Norton Folgate"

I know there's not many Ska fans around these parts, so I won't bang on too much but it's not what you might expect from "The Nutty Boys". It's almost a concept album with a much darker melancholic feel than most people will associate with Madness. Even if you don't like the band, you've got to give them credit for avoiding the scooter rally nostalgia circuit playing "Baggy Trousers" to fat blokes in harringtons and DM boots.

I don't know how, or why, but Suggs has a way of making me feel homesick about a city I never particularly liked living in.

[jim.cox]

Jack Johnson - To The Sea

Purchased on CD - much the same as his other work - nothing outstandingly new

MiisterD is right - Liberty of Norton Folgate is worth a listen - not just the same old Madness - but there are lingering echoes

timely, Ive been listening to early Black Sabbath all day.

Dont forget Blue Oyster Cult. (I dont like them, but a lot of people call them proto hevy metal). Me, I'm all about the Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.

[HenryDorsetCase]

my last download was My Morning Jacket "Z" actually all four of their studio albums.

Trying hard to like them, but not really succeeidng. I love the song "One Big Holiday" from "It Still Moves" but Jim James voice and the VOX on his vocal give me the shits.

Really liking The Black Keys "Brothers" also.
